The last day of camp. The Last of the Mohicans. God is good all the time, but especially today. I AM READY. Thank you @jake_bonacci the best. To all my team family and friends thank you. I will bring all of you into the cage with me.

Looks like Vitor is going to make it for the fight

Good luck. Let us know how it goes.

It'll be a good indicator of the buzz and demand for the event

I hope DC isn't putting as much weight in the idea of Rumble still being the dude that Koscheck and Vitor submitted. I was like when I heard him harping on it in interviews. There's a confidence dude carries now that DC is gonna have to work hard chip away at


Just a few more days with everyone in tact

Well as seeing that Aldo vs mcgregor hasn't sold out yet... And the hype Dana put behind that... I doubt this will sell out. The only card that has sold out and been confirmed is the Cain Vasquez vs Fabrico Werdum in Mexico. The last Ronda fight didn't sell out the card where Weidman was supposed to fight against Belfort on and again doesn't look like this card this weekend will either. It's a little mind boggling because I bought extra tickets just to flip but it seems not enough people are interested in the UFC in America at least. Cmon the Aldo fight still has seats left? That should tell you a lot

UFC 182 had a terrible gate/attendance and it sold 800K buys.
The UFC's cards are ridiculously expensive, especially PPVs. Look at the Conor/Aldo card, mid level seats are over $1k Seats in the highest rows are $750 on Ticketmaster.

Even their PPVs will have expensive tickets.

A few months ago, Bellator put on a better card the same weekend and ticket prices were 1/4 the UFC's.

I'm one of those guys that put up them nose bleed seats at $1k myself... But seeing as it didn't sell out... In seconds like Dana & Megregor said it would... I am going to drop my price. I was drinking the kool aid for sure.

They are very expensive. But the fact that UFC can't sell out these fights tells me something... Especially since this is almost a year now into their fox deal? 2 major titles on the line at that. I will say that the tickets were cheaper at the staples center for the original cards Aldo vs Mendes 2 that was canceled and Weidman vs Belfort with Ronda underneath before Weidman pulled out. The Vegas tickets are expensive.

The FOX deal signed almost 4 years ago breh

If 187 and 189 both had reasonable ticket prices, they would easily sell out.

time goes by so fast and I couldn't agree with you more. Idk if the high ticket sales are trying to compensate for the low ppv buys? Whatever the case may be it surely isn't to pay the fighters...
